I also make 2-3 visits a year but tend to stay longer each visit. <BR/><BR/>If I am moving about a lot my accomodation is about the same as yours but I try to get an apartment by the month if I am based somewhere which reduces the cost enormously. I probably average about 500 B a day for accomodation.<BR/><BR/>Food costs me 200-500 B depending on if I eat alone or take someone with me<BR/><BR/>Its harder to estimate expenses spent on boys but probably 2-3000 B a time but I dont go to the bars everyday, maybe only 2-3 times a week. <BR/><BR/>All up I estimate I spend about 30-40 000 B a month or about $1200 excluding big one off like airfares or expensive gifts to myself (like cameras, laptops etc)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
